Metallic and other inorganic coatings - Electrodeposited gold and gold alloy coatings for electrical, electronic and engineering purposes - Specification and test methods (ISO 27874:2008)
ISO 27874:2008 specifies the requirements for electrodeposited gold and gold alloy coatings for electrical, electronic and other engineering applications on metallic and non-metallic substrates. It also specifies test methods for measuring the properties of the coatings.
Although this International Standard does not specify the condition, finish or surface roughness of the basis material prior to electroplating, the appearance and serviceability of electroplated gold or gold alloy coatings depends on the condition of the basis material. It is essential that the purchaser specify the surface finish and roughness of the basis material in order to conform to the product requirements.
This International Standard does not apply to coatings on threaded articles or to coatings on sheet or strip in non-fabricated form.
Metallische und andere anorganische Überzüge - Galvanische Gold- und Goldlegierungsüberzüge für elektrische, elektronische und technische Zwecke - Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren (ISO 27874:2008)
Diese Internationale Norm legt die Anforderung an galvanische Gold- und Goldlegierungs-Überzüge auf metallischen und nichtmetallischen Substraten für elektrische, elektronische und andere technische Anwendungen fest. Sie legt auch die Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Eigenschaften dieser Überzüge fest.
Obgleich diese Internationale Norm Beschaffenheit, Finish und Rauheit des Grundmaterial vor der elektro-lytischen Abscheidung nicht festlegt, hängt das Aussehen und die Brauchbarkeit von galvanischen Gold- und Goldlegierungs-Überzügen von der Beschaffenheit des Grundmaterials ab. Es ist wesentlich, dass der Käufer Finish und Rauheit des Grundmaterials festlegt, um dadurch die Anforderungen an das Produkt zu bestätigen.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt nicht für Verbindungselemente mit Gewinden (siehe ISO 4042) oder für Über-züge auf Blechen und Bändern in unbearbeiteter Form.
Revêtements métalliques et autres revêtements inorganiques - Dépôts électrolytiques d'or et d'alliages d'or pour usages électrique, électronique et industriels - Spécification et méthodes d'essai (ISO 27874:2008)
L'ISO 27874:2008 spécifie les exigences relatives aux dépôts électrolytiques d'or et d'alliages d'or destinés à des applications électriques, électroniques et d'autres applications industrielles sur des substrats métalliques et non métalliques. Elle spécifie également les méthodes d'essai permettant de mesurer les propriétés des revêtements.
Bien que l'ISO 27874:2008 ne spécifie pas l'état initial, la finition ou la rugosité de surface du matériau de base avant le dépôt électrolytique, l'aspect et l'aptitude à l'usage des dépôts électrolytiques d'or ou d'alliages d'or dépendent de l'état du matériau de base. Il est essentiel que le client spécifie la finition de surface et la rugosité du matériau de base afin de se conformer aux exigences du produit.
L'ISO 27874:2008 ne s'applique ni aux revêtements déposés sur des éléments filetés, ni aux dépôts appliqués sur des tôles ou des bandes à l'état non usiné.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 27874 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 107, Metallic and other inorganic coatings,
Subcommittee SC 3, Electrodeposited coatings and related finishes.
This first edition of ISO 27874 cancels and replaces ISO 4523:1985, ISO 4524-1:1985, ISO 4524-4:1985 and
ISO 4524-5:1985, of which it constitutes a technical revision.

Introduction
The engineering uses of electrodeposited gold and gold alloy coatings have expanded with the growth of the
electrical and electronic industries. Low voltages and currents, dry circuits and microwave frequencies require
low-resistance interconnection systems, connectors and waveguides. Non-tarnishing, low-resistance gold
coatings were the logical choice for connectors where the stability of contact surfaces was critical. The need to
improve the wear resistance of gold coatings led to the development of new electroplating solutions containing
controlled amounts of metallic and non-metallic additives that either changed the composition or altered the
crystal structure of the coating. The special needs of the printed-circuit industry led to the development of acid
gold electroplating solutions that contained no free cyanide, yielding coatings that are hard, bright and
solderable. Formulations for high-speed electroplating up to current densities of 200 A/dm were introduced
for continuous strip, stripe or spot gold and gold alloy coatings.
The high cost of gold metal has led to the development of selective and thickness profile plating techniques to
limit the use of the metal to the active areas only of the components, where the gold is required. Designers will
therefore often specify the area requiring gold electroplating as well as the thickness profile, if required, by
reference to suitably marked drawings.
With the introduction of many new gold electroplating formulations and the proliferation of engineering
applications, the need for technical standards that specify the requirements of electrodeposited gold and gold
alloy coatings, as well as the test methods to ensure that the specified requirements are met, is critical.
Composition, appearance, hardness, thickness, purity, porosity, wear resistance, solderability, electrical
contact resistance, infrared reflectivity and other properties must be controlled to produce high-quality gold
and gold alloy coatings for engineering purposes.
